I am AWESOME! giveaway

As a mom blogger, I receive emails almost daily to review kid/toddler/baby products. And while I certainly appreciate the offers, I almost always turn them down. Yes, I am a mom, and yes “mommy” is in the title of my blog, but this space is more about me and my running than kids and their toy room.

But recently, an email made it’s way to my inbox with a product I instantly fell in LOVE with. I had to get my hands on a set and I HAD to tell you all about them.

Call me cheesy, but I’m in love with these. A product so very simple, yet so simply amazing, I jumped on the opportunity to tell my readers about these pieces of happiness.

Let’s face it. Times are tough for kids these days. Bullying has gotten ridiculous. Elementary school children are resorting to suicide because of it. SUICIDE! It breaks my heart to hear stories of how these BABIES do not believe in themselves, believe in their dreams, or KNOW their WORTH! Be it a result of peer pressure, bullying, or unfortunately in this day and age, parents who live their lives constantly on the go and so full of stress that they just forget to say these simple words to their children.

The truth is, we can not tell our children ENOUGH how amazing they are, how LOVED they are. And by our children, I don’t just mean our biological children. I mean the children of the world. They are our FUTURE and they need to know that if they just believe it, they can move mountains. Sure, a poster might not change lives, but it can certainly help to be reminded sometimes of your awesomeness 🙂

Heck, we ALL need those reminders from time to time!

And…quite honestly…I wanted some for myself. I’m totally taking some of these to the next race I spectate to wave at the athletes!

Here’s what the Foster Mind has to say about their product:

He is amazing!

What is Self-Affirmation?

Self-affirmation is the practice of telling one’s self over and over again their desires in an effort to build a healthy mind and boost confidence. There is nothing children need more than to be encouraged and given the tools to grow a positive self-image.

Why Self-Affirmations work?

The power of intention is the beginning of all successful outcomes. Studies have revealed that self-affirmations – when either read or chanted on a regular basis – have the power to inspire the mind believe that anything is possible. By teaching your child at an early age the practice of self-affirmation, you will help them develop inner tools to find true happiness and ultimate success.

How does Self-Affirmation Help Early Childhood Development?

Child psychologist and educators have revealed that the earlier you instill confidence and a positive life outlook in your child, the more likely they will succeed as adults. Self-confidence is essential for helping them reach goals and utilize their talents to the fullest.

How will FosterMind Help My Child?

FosterMind affirmation posters will boost your child’s feelings of self-confidence & inner strength while building a positive belief system to last a lifetime!

Surrounding your child 24/7 with FosterMind will help sculpt his or her mind – inspiring positive thoughts, actions, character and attitude each and every day.

Exposing a child to positive thought and environment is the best gift a parent can give.

Boost self-confidence and inner strength to help create positive and happy life circumstances.

Instill your child with a positive belief system from an early age, and they will be able to accomplish his or her wildest dreams.

Imagine what the outcome would be if your child were exposed to negative thoughts and environments at all times. One cannot fully comprehend the damage that can be done to a child’s personality and future when surrounded by negative influences. On the flipside, imagine what can happen when their minds are infused with positive influences!!

All thoughts that are passed on to the subconscious regularly have the power to convince the mind that they are true.

Location, location, location! Use your child’s bedroom as “real-estate” for maximizing his or her growth potential.

FosterMind is the perfect gift from grandparents, aunts, uncles and friends! What better gift than one that inspires positive thought and self-esteem!!

Each package comes with 30 full color, high quality 11×17″ posters, as well as 120 removable glue dots for easy hanging, and retails for $29.99.

They sent me two packages to enjoy, and I would LOVE to pass one of them on to one of you.

To enter, please become a follower of my blog, & leave me a comment below telling who you would like to share these posters with. Your children? Your students? Your running group? In your office? At the gym? Random buildings on the street? The possibilities are endless. Let me know who YOU would encourage with a set of posters!

I think these posters are great! I would probably hang up some in my home gym/office room, share some with my son, and maybe use one at any races I spectate at. There are so many great ways to use them!!

OMG I absolutely love these! I am a mom of three kiddos- I tell them every day how awesome they really are! I would love to share some of these with them and their elementary school… this is such a great idea!

Wow, these are amazing! I see my son struggling with living up to his own expectations (and he’s only 6, yes, seriously) and I would love to give some to him. Also my daughter, and lord knows I need the reminder a lot of the time.

My word – I would post these babies everywhere and share with everyone. I’d post them in my classroom and put them in my kids room, on the refrigerator, share with running girls, take to races, you name it! These are incredible!

I would love to share these around as appropriate to the individual messages… friends, my older sister who is amazing, my nieces and nephews and I love the idea of random signs around my town. That is such a neat idea!

Great stuff! I have been using positive affirmations on note cards for myself for years. seeing these, I immediately thought they would be great at work. I employ several high school kids, how awesome would it be for them to come to work and be surrounded by positive affirmations! I love it!

I would share them with my children. I would post different ones on different days in their room, on their bathroom mirror, doors throughout the house. We homeschool, so I think this would be a neat opportunity to post throughout the house. Also to take a few and randomly post them in public bathrooms, on the backs of doors…..

These are brilliant! I’ll be sitting out at least the first part of race season next year, but these would be perfect for cheering from the sidelines-especially now that my older kids are starting to race! I’d love to have a few up at home, and randomly leave one in my husband’s car. 🙂 I also have a friend who runs fitness classes out of a little gym she has set up in her basement who has inspired and helped dozens of people find their way to fitness, through not only her example and classes, but through Biggest Loser type of challenges she sets up for our community. I’m sure she would love to have some!

I’d love to put them up around my house – my bathroom, my kids’ rooms, the kitchen. . . I’d put some up near my desk at work as well! And I bet my older son’s teacher would like them for her classroom.

I love these posters!! I have 33 fourth grade students who need to hear this each and everyday. As their teacher and coach I am always looking for ways to motivate and encourage them. These look like they would be a wonderful addition to my room!!

I love these! What a great idea. Colorful, and yet very simple and uplifting. I would share them w/ my kiddo, my stepdaughter, my son’s classroom, my PT clients, and prob at my day job at UMF. BUT–I am already a follower, I already like you on FB, I don’t tweet… and the link to Foster Minds isn’t working –I’ll search them on FB. Thanks for this info Heather <3 <3

These would be awesome. I would put one up in the bathroom at the oncology office my father goes to for treatment, one would go in a place he sees at home a lot, one in each of my kids’ rooms and if there are more, one in my bathroom and one at my college campus.Kids are under way too much scrutiny from their peers now and so are women. I think this is an awesome idea and if I don’t win this, I’ll roll change for a while until I can afford to but a set on my own and put them up as surprises.

Hi, Just became a new follower of your blog. I would use these at home for my little ones and at school. I am a teacher (PE) and they would be awesome, teachers are constantly giving feedback to their students but so rarely does it come in this form as simple as, “you rock”
